The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 987

Chapter 987

"I'm so pleased that you two were able to reconnect as siblings. In this lifetime, if you can find your biological parents, then you'll have two sets of parents who love you. If not, we will treat you as if you were our own flesh and blood: Surprisingly, Taylor wasn't worried about Dennis whisking her daughter away.

Instead, she felt joy in gaining another "son".

"Our family just got a little larger,’ Logan chuckled warmly.

For Dennis, this was the first time he felt the warmth and beauty of a family.

Gratefully, he looked at the kind-hearted couple before him. They didn't shoo him away out of fear that he might take Carol, instead, they accepted his presence with open hearts.

"Thank you for taking care of Carol all these years,’ Dennis thanked them, standing up to bow in gratitude.

“What is there to thank us for? We've always treated Carol as our own,’ Taylor quickly motioned for him to sit down.

They engaged in a lengthy conversation, eventually discussing Clark's recent endeavors for Carol's sake.

Carol was moved to hear about Clark's relentless pursuit of her, going to her house, following her to Lidaria, and even giving up a life-saving opportunity for her adoptive parents, facing a group of men all by himself.

Touched by his actions, she was even more convinced that he was the one.

"We support your relationship, and we are looking forward to celebrating your union, Taylor tenderly said, holding both Clark and Carol's hands. "You two will be very happy."

Both of them were deeply in love with each other, putting one another before their own lives.

Dennis, who was observing from the side, had nothing to say since their adoptive parents had given their consent.

However, he would keep a close eye on Clark and Crystal. He wouldn't let his sister suffer the slightest bit of injustice.

However, Taylor was still worried and asked anxiously, "Are you feeling alright now? Do you have any side effects?"

"I'm perfectly fine,’ Carol replied, wincing as her mother squeezed her wounded hand, but she kept her composure, a soft gaze in her eyes.

Clark thought to himself, if Carol could bear this kind of pain with such grace, how painful must the poison inside her body be that it could make her cry?

“We need to find a way to bring those criminals to justice!" Logan was furious upon hearing about his daughter's hardships.

"Bella has already come up with a plan, and we're implementing it. It's been effective these past few days,’ Carol assured them. She also apologized, "I'm sorry that I couldn't save you when those men tied you up and sent me pictures on WhatsApp."

"I'm sorry, too. She was suffering from the poison at that time, and I was also severely injured. We truly regret that you had to suffer’ Dennis added, feeling extremely guilty.

Under those circumstances, if he had even a bit of strength left, he wouldn't have stood by and watched the elderly couple suffer.
